Two Christmases ago, my daughter got her step-sister’s three-year old an Elsa doll that sang “Let It Go”. They had the batteries out of that thing before New Year’s.
My brother tells a story of being ready to leave on of his wife’s family events, but she wasn’t at all. Somehow, one of her nephews got a hold of my brother’s duck call….
Oh the original Big Wheel! And a promise of chocolate chip cookies and chocolate ice cream if our kids could ride around our block 25 times. Those were the days. But where were they when our grand kids showed up?
The worst was Tickle Me Elmo. I just about had to sell my souls to get that brackin fracking thing. And the thing was cute as heck. For the first 10,000 Elmo laughed. By the second hour, I was ready to pull the stuffing out of Elmo. “uh ha ha ha hee hee” AAAAAAAAAAAUGH. No one had to tickle Elmo after a while, he giggled on his own. Evil Elmo. The happiest day of my life was when my daughter got sick of TME.
My maternal grandfather once gave me a drum for Christmas when I was very young. My parents made sure I brought it with me the next time I visited him. He later gave me a butter knife and asked me how did the drum worked.

One of my favorites for other people’s kids is the “Bring in ’da Noise, Bring in ’da Funk” starter kit.

My outlaws were visibly disappointed when my son didn’t show much interest in the Fisher-Price drum set they gave him for his second Christmas…
